Is there a way to pause during printing and remove an object from the plate and tell the printer to stop printing that one object?
I had the following problem, I had four parts printing and one of them came off the print bed and I had to remove it so it wouldn’t come off the other parts. After that, the printer wanted to continue printing the removed component and produced a lot of spaghetti because it printed into the air. Is there a way to prevent this?

Next time, if yours objects are far apart enough, you can print them sequentially, it is faster and you wont lost already printed objects.
EDIT: also it make it possible to print each object in a different colors without loosing filament or using purge.

This would really be a great feature. Is really tedious when it solves after 5 hours a part and the other parts would actually be fine.

Thanks. I know the function, but unfortunately I could not use it in this case because the parts were too big.

YES, there actually is!
It seems you can currently only do it via the mobile app - Just tested it out: I paused the print, then tapped onto the small icon with the 3 boxes and the curved arrow and the text “skip”, then you see a top view of your print bed and can select the model directly and chose to skip it!

One thing to note, my P1S will finish the layer it was on even when I skip that object. So you may need to “babysit” the print until that layer is finished.
